The quote is not from twitter but by Věra Jourová, the EU’s vice-president in charge of the disinformation code. "They" in this context is the EU commission. Here in Sweden we have a long standing political guideline when it come to politicians and media/news/culture/free speech. Politician should keep a minimum arm-length distance so to not enter temptation of controlling those part of society. Partnership in this context is also a bit weird. The EU commission does not have a police force nor do they enforce the law. The commission role is draft legislation, arbitrate in the legislative process, engage in trade negotiations, and draw up the budget of the European Union.
